12k-Mile 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Targa 5-Speed

Description

Porsche’s 964-generation 911 marked a turning point for the iconic sports car, blending classic air-cooled charm with modern engineering and safety features. Among the most desirable variants is the Carrera 2 Targa—combining open-air driving and rear-wheel drive purity. With its timeless styling and analog driving experience, the 964 Targa is a standout candidate for RADwood and a must-have for collectors of ‘80s and ‘90s performance icons.

This 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 Targa is a remarkably low mileage example showing just 12,312 miles. Finished in Black (700) over Cashmere Beige leather, it retains a factory 3.6-liter M64 air-cooled flat-six engine paired with the durable and desirable G50/50 five-speed manual transaxle. Factory equipment includes a removable Targa roof panel, speed-activated rear spoiler, 16-inch Design 90 wheels, cruise control, air conditioning, and power-adjustable front seats.

In 2022, approximately $14,000 in service was performed, including cleaning the fuel tank, installing a Fabspeed catalytic converter, and replacing the idle stabilizer valve, fuel pressure regulator, spark plugs, ignition wires, valve cover gaskets, belts, seals, and filters. The hood and decklid struts were also replaced, and the brake fluid flushed.

This 964 Targa is offered with its original window sticker, owner’s manual, a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean New York title in the seller’s name. With its low mileage, documented history, and recent servicing, this air-cooled Porsche is ready for show, collection, or spirited weekend drives.
